Vile Reviews:
vile 
2007-11-28 - The cd in and of itself is GREAT. the first with corpsegrinder on vox. The dvd is absolutely fantastic footage. maybe not the best quality but SO MUCH ENERGY.
cannibal corpse vile
2007-06-08 - if you are a big fan of metal and cannibal corpse then you need to got this album to complete your cannibalisam life style as a fan.
if you don't have the Vile album then by all means get this release 
2007-05-05 - The album is awesome, probably alot of you know this so I won't go into it.
But the DVD is mostly crap because of the low audio quality: it was recorded over 2 nights, and the first night, which comprises 90% of the DVD, YOU CAN"T HARDLY EVEN HEAR CORPSEGRINDER!!!! not to mention the muddy quality of the music. The saving grace of the DVD is the 4 "bonus material" songs which were recorded on the second night at the same venue, in which you can now hear Corpsegrinder clearly in the mix, and there is some great "audience participation" going on, such as some humorous give-and-take between the audience and the band, and at one point Corpsegrinder lets an audience member do the growls for a second.
Overall, I would say that if you are rolling in dough, or just don't care, and want to know what it is like to be at a Cannibal Corpse show, and you want a deeper insight into the band as people, then the DVD is worth it. I'm glad I have the DVD because it is the first time I've seen the Corpse perform. And I love the bonus material 2nd night stuff.
The Vile just keep comming
2007-04-10 - This album is awesome, the opening song, Devoured By Vermin just Knocks you off your feet, then your not exactly let up again.
I was a little disapointed with the DVD but I understand the band wanted to put a show out that best portrayed the songs and not just a well mixed and highly polished video. I already have some of the tracks on the Live Cannibalism DVD so I guess I feel a bit cheated. If your into raw camcorder footage and sound then it will be awsome.
